Manly Traits in Literature

It recently occurred to me that unmarried girls of the literary vein have an unrealized but very strong literary judgment of any men in their lives. I was thinking, merely to amuse myself, that if I could only name one of Mr. Darcy's qualities, which would be the one that completely personified him. Then a thought flitted across my mind to do the same with all the great male characters in literature, so...

Henceforth all the men in you literary lasses lives should have all of the following qualities, and read the book from whence each gentleman comes; otherwise he is not worthy.

Mr. Knightly's knightlyness
Mr. Darcy's manners
John Brook's niceness
Mr. Bhaer's comfort
Robin Hood's justice
Wiliam Wallace's scottishness (this being quite essential)
Gilbert Blythe's persistance
Faramir's leadership
Sam Gamgee's friendship
Edward Ferrer's honor
Henry V's nobility
Pa Ingall's wisdom
Dr. McNiel's service (and scottishness, again)
Zachary Moon's romance (in the good, old-fashioned way)
Grandfather Fordyce's jollity
Jack Aubrey's boldness
David Lyall hominess

(now for the unmarried gentlemen)

Matthew Cuthbert's kindness
Peter Pevensie's forgiveness
Edmund Pevensie's redeemed soul
Canon Tallis' resourcefulness
Jean Valjean's self-sacrifice
Roger Walker's unique perspective
Father Brown's purity
Dickon's music
Badger's protection
Mole's steadfastness
and last and very important, every man should have a little bit of pixie dust...
Peter Pan's fun

If I have forgotten any literary gentlemen, forgive me. And above all,
Never Be A Wickham.
